About

We have changed our name to the El Motor Inn, changed from El Paso Motor Inn. Offering free WiFi, El Motor Inn is just 5 minutes' walk from The Hastings River. It is located in the center of Port Macquarie, opposite the Glasshouse Entertainment Center. All air-conditioned rooms at El Paso Inn feature a flat-screen TV. Some rooms also feature a private balcony overlooking the pool area. The El Cafe serves breakfast daily and contemporary Australian cuisine for dinner. You can also enjoy al fresco dining in the BBQ area. El Paso provides free private parking, with 1 parking space per room. There is a shuttle service from the bus station and the airport only, and is available subject to availability.

    Room was clean tidy and organised.

    Car park is compact and some spaces do not seem to be used efficiently.

    Close to town and affordable

    A little outdated. Pillows weren’t very comfortable. Fridge difficult to access for short people.

    10JessPosted on: 2-13-2026

    The rooms were very clean, well presented and comfy

    10SarahPosted on: 2-12-2026

    Lovely staff, look after my parents.Nice size rooms, perfect location.

    8SharonPosted on: 2-11-2026

    Convenient location. Clean and comfortable

    A few minor details missed in housekeeping. Nothing to stop us staying again though.

    8JeffPosted on: 2-9-2026

    Location is excellent and reception were happy and helpful

    Would have like to stay on the return trip but the rate increases +25% so we stayed at another in town

    10JahnaPosted on: 2-8-2026

    Great value with lots of extras we loved the room service and pool .

    A little microwave would be handy

    9JanePosted on: 2-8-2026

    Very central in middle of town. Has pool, some room service & cafe on site. Good amenities. Great for an overnight stay for us while travelling.

    Location!

    “Virtual” check in after 7pm, and no wifi CODE left with papers, or in the room… so no wifi until morning.The “single” bed was TINY.

    10MacePosted on: 2-5-2026

    Great location. A block from the ocean. Around the corner from cafes, pub and restaurants. However, it was surprisingly quiet at night which was a real bonus.Nice room with the basics.

    I was unimpressed that the water bottles were not complimentary.

    location

    cramped dark rooms with overflowing ashtrays left outside door to room

    10BronwynPosted on: 2-1-2026

    The property was in great location, staff very friendly and accommodating.

    The only thing I could find fault was the shower and shower screen had mould and not clean probably.. every thing else was pristine
